Near, far, wherever you are, fans will have Celine Dion’s back if they think she’s been snubbed. However, many others think Taylor Swift’s reaction wasn’t intentional and she was just overly excited about winning album of the year at the 2024 Grammy Awards. “I understand that on camera it doesn’t look great but Taylor Swift was clearly so distracted and overwhelmed and happy in the moment when Celine Dion handed her the Grammy, Taylor would never snub someone like that intentionally. They clearly talked backstage right after,” a fan wrote on X.
Others suggested that perhaps Swift was respecting Dion’s physical space after the “All By Myself” singer revealed she had stiff-person syndrome in 2022. “Are you all ignoring that fact that she gave Celine a standing ovation when she came on stage and was singing/dancing to her song? Are you also ignoring the fact that Celine is in bad health and Taylor didn’t know if she was allowed to hug her?” another fan shared. Swifties were not the only ones who defended the “Blank Space” singer, and an expert shared some insight on the now-viral mishap.
